Philco 90
#5

(06-26-2016, 10:11 PM)Radioroslyn Wrote:  Looks like I'm seeing two 27's a 47 and 80 up in the right front corner. Along with what John posted a lot of the early Philco (28-34 or so) sets have bad ant and osc coils. Not the end of the world but something else to fix.Other things I've seen are open field coils and output transformers. The 90 does use a curved tube shield as do the 20,21,70 and 71. All look similar but won't fit the 90.  Are you the old PhilcoPhan? I see we have something in common.

Terry, thanks. I had to re- wind an OSC coil on an 84B. Hope I don't have to do that on this, but if I do, having that experience will help, I'm sure. I'll check everything when I dive into it. Right now I'm just gathering info and figuring out what I may need.

And, No, I'm not the old PhilcoPhan. I'm sure I'm not the 1st to use that nickname, and won't be the last.....
